Saint Cajetan

And he ends up clarifying certain thi- I mean, the con- the...

It's, it's what's so interesting about the 1530s, the controversies and the debates he's engaged in, whether he wants to or not, they didn't end with, you know, Eck and, [laughs] and, uh, Cajetan and all those people we've talked about.

He's, they're, uh...

He has new foes, if you will, and we kinda saw a bit of that today with Zwingli.

A couple guys didn't know who actually he was.

He's a true Southsider, St. Cajetan guy.

He actually was in the Aurelio's commercials as well, with the pepperoni pizza.

Oh, that's great.

Like a captain, he carried a standard for his followers, and by his example stirred them up to write.

Cajetan and the Anabaptists are of the opinion that St. Matthew wrote in Greek, because Hebrew words such as Emmanuel, Eli, Lamashabani are translated into Greek.

But these may have been added by the Greek translator.

St. Jerome, Augustine, Eusebius, and the rest of the ancients unanimously affirm that Matthew wrote in Hebrew, and that he did so because he was asked by the Jews, when he was going away amongst the Gentiles, to leave them in writing what he had orally preached to them.

Hence, in Numbers 24, 17, for shall rise, the Hebrew has darak, i.e. hath proceeded.

A star proceedeth out of Jacob.

You will ask, did the star remain stationary in the east, or was it a constant attendant upon the Magi in their journey to Judea? Jansen, Cajetan, and others think that it remained stationary.

They attempt to prove this, one, because the Magi say, we have seen his star in the east.
